That generally reduces the severity of symptoms.

Where have we heard that before?

Having grown up in the 60's had the standard diseases: Measles, chicken pox, etc. I can never recall any of my schoolmates dying or being incapacitated from these diseases.

Furthermore, based on the premise there is no danger to the vaxed I don't really see the problem. Risk is accepted for the unvaxed and vaxed are fine.

Yet, the snowflakes at the L.A. Times don’t worry about all of the diseases being spread by unvetted, illegal aliens.

Measles can be DEADLY and also cause all kinds of problems; yes, even for children! You may not have known anyone, as a child, who had a serious case; however, NOW YOU DO...ME! And back when I was a child, yes, I did know others who also were harmed by it. OTOH...it is more usual for adults, who used to get measles to have very serious problems or die from it.

The vaccines work, re measles; those who get the shots don't get it.

Depending on the type of measles, one can also develop
severe light sensitivity if they don’t follow some rather
simple precautions, once they’ve contracted the disease.

Measles is a serious disease. The vaccine, unlike the COVID shot, is time tested and it works.

Oh, the panties, they are a-twistin! 🩲

Measles is a normal childhood disease, and running publ8c health like boy in a bubble is a BAD idea. Plus, if you get it as an adult, it’s much more dangerous.

Dittos, except I had it about 1952. It was SOP for parents to expose their kids on purpose, to gain early immunity. Nobody died, nobody had lasting effects. I got a few days home from school, ice cream and ginger ale out of it.

Being deployed to Afghanistan and 3 times to Iraq I was a human pin cushion. However, the anthrax vaxes were being challenged at that time so I didn’t get them, got me to start wondering. While I had an initial smallpox around 1960 I got another in 2005 before deploying to Iraq, they said should be required every 10 years.

God blessed me with a daughter in 2013 and dutifully we got her fully vaccinated. But there was no smallpox because it was eradicated. Because of the VAX I’m now not sure what I should continue for her. For example, she is almost due for the HPV, but if you do nothing she should develop immunity to it. So why should I vax her?

So when the government says “That generally reduces the severity of symptoms.” I am now on high alert leaning towards not getting the vaccine.

Covid-19 was completely (and deceitfully) mishandled, but measles isn’t Covid.

Measles is genuinely a very bad disease, and the vaccine is well-tested and actually works.

Please let’s not become the anti-vax party. (I’d leave that for RFK Jr; hopefully he’ll split the Democrat vote.)

The marching orders to the media have gone out. Local Miami media began advertising Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s talking points yesterday morning. Today it has spread to the LA SLIMES.

Who's unconcerned? The chief public health official of the state of Florida, that's who. He's Joseph Ladapo, who I earlier identified as "the most dangerous quack in America."

That was before the measles outbreak, when Ladapo was known chiefly for opposing COVID vaccination despite incontrovertible evidence that it saves lives.

1 in 5 will be hospitalized, 1 in 20 will develop pneumonia (the most common way measles kills young kids), 1 in 1,000 will develop encephalitis (infection of the brain, sometimes causing permanent brain damage), and 1-3 in 1,000 will die.

After the first two paragraphs, I don't believe his *stats* for a minute.

The real issue is where the outbreak originated. The only reason we’re seeing any outbreaks is due to bidens open borders.

This is nothing but a hit piece on Joe Ladapo, whom they’ve been gunning for, since his early wisdom against their quackcine was found to be correct.
They want his hide for making them look like the fools they are.

The media is making this out to be the fault of parents who refuse to vaccinate their kids. How many can that be compared to all of the unvaccinated children eagerly ushered across the southern border and flown all over the country?
